Channel Islands / Al Merrick K Step-Up Surfboard

A proven semi-gun for juicy waves. This is the board King Kelly has turned to time and again in at Teahupoo, Cloudbreak and the like. When the waves get a little bigger or powerful, but you don’t quite need a gun, this board will do you proud.

Planning a trip to Indo? Want to be ready next time the waves get juicy at your local break? Then this could be the ideal addition to your quiver.

Developed by Kelly Slater, the K Step-Up is somewhere between a thruster and a gun - although probably a little closer to the former.

Extra length and volume will allow you to catch waves early, generous rocker will help you fit into tight spots and the rounded-pin will provide much needed control when things get racey.

Custom Orders Available On This Model

We stock the largest range of surfboards in the country. However if you can't find what you're looking for then why not get one made just for you, exactly how you want it?

We offer a custom order service on any Channel Islands, Lost, Pukas and Christenson* surfboards. We are the only AAA account holder in the UK for these boards. What does that mean to you? Well, it means that all of our custom boards are ordered and made under highest priority, which means less waiting time for you. We have the fastest turn around of any shop in the country, with an estimated board completion time of 4-5 weeks*.

Width and thickness from stock dimensions - tweak the measurements according to requirements

Whether to have carbon strips and/or tail patches

Glassing: Go heavier or lighter to suit your needs

We also offer a bespoke board ordering service for Bing, and Ryan Lovelace surfboards. These boards will take longer as they are hand shaped and finished in California before being shipped (like actually on a boat dude!). As a rough guide we bring boards in from California 2-3 times a year, but it's best to contact us for the current import status.

Going to the other side of the world, we take custom orders on JS,DHD and Vouch surfboards. These boards are built at the respective factories in Australia and sent over along with our stock orders.. Again, 2 - 3 times a year.

Some customisations will of course incur an additional fee, ie.sprays, carbon etc.. in which case we'll advise.

If you want to place a custom order, or just want to have a chat to find out more, give us a call on +44 (0)1736 757025 or drop us an email.

When we've agreed on exactly what you want, and you're ready to place an order, we'll need a £100 deposit to secure your board until the joyful day if arrives... bringing with it 4-6ft waves and offshore winds....just like every time you buy a new board... right?

*4-5 weeks is an average time for completion. However we cannot be responsible for delays beyond our control (transport, force majeure, etc.). We will however contact you if we have any information regarding the unlikely event that your board will not be made and returned in an agreed time period. Christenson surfboards take up to 10 weeks for completion.
